Kings' Domantas Sabonis Has Partial Meniscus Tear, To Be Re-Evaluated in 3–4 Weeks

The three-time All-Star faces a multiweek absence that forces Sacramento’s 3-12 team to reshuffle a frontcourt built around his playmaking and rebounding.

Overview

  • The Kings said an MRI revealed a partial tear in Sabonis’ left meniscus after he reported soreness following Sunday’s game in San Antonio.
  • He missed Wednesday’s loss at Oklahoma City and is set for a re-evaluation in three to four weeks, a timetable that points to at least roughly 10 games out.
  • Sacramento has dropped seven straight by double figures and sits at 3-12 during a difficult early stretch.
  • Sabonis has averaged 17.2 points and 12.3 rebounds in 11 games this season after previously missing time with hamstring and rib issues.
  • With Sabonis sidelined, Precious Achiuwa, Drew Eubanks and Maxime Raynaud are candidates for expanded frontcourt roles, and coach Doug Christie emphasized the need to sustain a high compete level.
